An Interview With Giant Robot’s Eric Nakamura

Giant Robot has set the pace for a lot of things. The Little Osaka based store/magazine/gallery has created a huge new world of lifestyle and culture surrounding Japanese popular culture. It can even be said that they are the brand responsible for the surge of interest in Japanese popular culture over the past ten years. The result has not only helped changed how we view the culture but also what is included in the art world and the idea of showing art and selling products.

We spoke with Eric Nakamura, the man behind the Robot, who had some really fantastic things to say about life, work, Los Angeles, and how to be successful in the modern world. He’s a guy who can do everything, from photographing something to literally building a wall, and is very proud of what he does. He’s a super nice guy with an equally as nice aesthetic and approach to what he is doing. Check out our interview with him here.
